✨🧶 Crochet Swatch Saturday 🧶✨
Yarn: UniverseXL
Colorway: 19 Cassiopeia
Where to Buy: Hobbii
Hook Size Used: 4.5 mm
🔥 The Tea on This Yarn:
- Fiber Content: 98% acrylic, 2% polyester. Nothing fancy here, just what you would expect. I’m generally not a fan of acrylic and prefer not to use it as much as possible. 7/10
- Color Range: 14 current color options with 12 others that are discontinued but still have stock. Quite a few options for a color phasing yarn. Long and subtle color changes rather than obvious. 8/10
- Frogability: Super easy 🐸 (undoing your mistakes has never been smoother… too bad life doesn’t work like that). 10/10
- Splitting: Just a tad bit 7/10
- Stitch Definition: A little muted but still visible. 7/10
- Feel: Decent softness for an acrylic with a tiny sharpness from the polyester ribbon. 5/10
- Drape: A little stiff for a DK weight yarn. Just what I would expect. 7/10
- Washability: Cold water wash, no dry. A little bummed about that.. 6/10
- Warnings or concerns: 10/10
- Price: A little pricy for an acrylic unless it’s on sale. 8/10
✨ Overall verdict: Lovely long color changes in beautiful colors but not the nicest of yarns overall. 7.5/10 ✨Don’t forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and hit the notification bell to join the crafty community! 🧶
